Charly And The Oath Keepers

03/15/2013

I could have pulled this straight from The Rott, or any of a number of the others referenced in this post, but linking Lady Raven shows just how far this is spreading. She has a number of links herself, and videos, and it is good. Extremely good.

Charly knows nothing of war. He pees on tires, begs for Snausages, chases birds and squirrels and rolls in cat shit if I don’t keep a watchful eye. He memorizes every square inch of his territory and guards it jealously. He loves me unconditionally despite my flaws. Charly knows nothing of war, and, he is my touchstone to the life I knew before war was declared.

The Oath Keepers heard the first drum beats of that declaration to fundamentally transform America long before most of the country. The quiet thump, thump, thump on the parchment of a document over 200 years old. They sounded the alarm early, and often, but few listened.

Now, make no mistake, the sabres rattle in response to the drum beats which are near deafening:

Yup, it’s getting closer. Many of the scenes in the video are personally familiar to me. If there is not a fundamental shift in the way our government is headed, we’re likely to be looking at some very rough times in the future.

One key indicator I’m watching is the current gun control debate. If any but the most minor restrictions (eg. stiffer penalties for criminals in possession of firearms) are enacted, we will have advanced another and very critical step towards 1776v2.0.

There is some hope. Here’s a link to the recent confrontation between Sen. Ted Cruz and Sen. Diane Feinstein. At roughly 3:55 Feinstein even admits that her legislation is probably un Constitutional and then tries to walk it back. Cruz’s point may have been overly verbose and complex, but still very apt.

The reason for the side step is very simple. They want to hide their real agenda. The ultimate aim of all anti gun people is the total confiscation of all personally owned firearms. Many people fall for it. It’s been a successful tactic for Democrats for decades.

We’ve talked a great deal about the dumbing down of America. It’s very true. Very few people can actually read a sentence or hear a speech and understand objectively what is being said, rather than reacting to the subjective imagery.

“The rifle itself has no moral stature, since it has no will of its own. Naturally, it may be used by evil men for evil purposes, but there are more good men than evil, and while the latter cannot be persuaded to the path of righteousness by propaganda, they can certainly be corrected by good men with rifles.” ― Jeff Cooper, Art of the Rifle
